CZW World Junior Heavyweight champion Drake Younger retained over Philly's Most Wanted's BLK Jeez
Younger was looking to humble the controversial BLK Jeez last night and may have done so as Jeez was injured near the end of the match. The injury came at the conclusion of the match where Younger slammed BLK Jeez down hard on his neck. At last word, BLK Jeez is recovering and should be able to return to the ring. No time table as to when he will return has been reported just yet.

Greg Excellent def. "Bulldozer" Matt Tremont
In a match made for the personal enjoyment of CZW owner DJ Hyde, Greg Excellent vs. Bulldozer was a solid contest. But when neither man would use a weapon on their opponent, given to them by Hyde, DJ Hyde used the chair himself on both men. The chair shot to Excellent actually caused Excellent to fall on top of Tremont to give him the victory.

After the match Colon announced "his people" built CZW and this country. Together with Azrieal, Bandido Jr., and Chrissy Rivera, Alex Colon has started a new faction at CZW called 4Loko!
But that wasn't all the after-match action - Joey Gacy attacked Ryan Slater from behind saying now was HIS time, leaving Slater an unconscious heap in the middle of the ring.

In the No Ropes, Barbed Wire Main Event Match, Danny Havoc def. Drew Gulak
This match did not disappoint, as these two bitter rivals literally tore into each other! This brutal battle saw the Campaign be ousted from the ringside area by the Nation of Intoxication who led the charge along with the top Ultraviolent competitors including Drake Younger and MASADA who wished to see their “Ultraviolent Brethren” save the Ultraviolent style of wrestling from the grasp of Drew Gulak!
